The Promise of Morning
-
I’m a morning person. Mornings offer a beautiful, fresh start when the sun awakens us to new possibilities. Here is The Promise of Morning.
The Promise of Morning
In the shadows I am waiting
To see the sun, anticipating
That fears and worries will not last
The darkest part of the night has past
Now in the quiet morning haze
The dawn begins to gently break
My heart responds to the sun’s first rays
Thanks to God for this new day
With each rotation of the Earth
I feel released and find new worth
In taking breath and sensing light
Perhaps I change somehow each night
And each beginning is new and fresh
With opportunities to be blessed
With peace, and hope, and a new attitude
I still my heart in gratitude
